“Building the Cinematography Machine in Feature Film Production” with Cinematographer, Mathew Knight

During this presentation, Mathew will explain the process a cinematographer goes through when making a feature film. Starting from the early stages of building a vision with the director and producers, to working with a Production Designer on concept art, and shooting schedules with the first assistant director, to building department teams across camera, lighting, and grips. Working with a Digital Imaging Technician and editorial department through testing to develop look and workflow from on-set to post-production, and breaking down the day by day shoot schedule and through to final colour grading.

Using case studies of his work on Daffodils and other New Zealand films, Mat will discuss how to work with and manage the variety of elements and departments that contribute and influence the cinematography on a film.
